Genre: Dramedy

Cast Breakdown:
OSCAR (37) tunnel-visioned wannabe comedian and has-been actor. Can’t let go of his glory days and would do ANYTHING to get back to them if he were given the chance…
GREG (31) careless and suggestible kidnapper. Doesn’t want to be bad at his job but just can’t help it. Being easily distractible, he can get on board with just about any plan.
JERRY (39) rich and sensible. Unlike Oscar, his career skyrocketed and he might still be living in his glory days. Completely moved on from the sitcom that started his fame.
